Snowload Analysis A new, 43-page booklet giv ing snow weight information for builders, architects, engineers and others involved in putting up structures is now available at the Heppner SCS office. Dale W. Boner, District Con servationist for SCS, said the booklet "Snow Load Analysis for Oregon" was published by the Structural Engineers Assn. of Oregon in cooperation with the USDA Soil Conservation Ser vice, Oregon State University, and State Engineer. Authors are Jerry Estoup, structural engineer and chair man of the SEAO Snow Load Committee, and Tom George, SCS snow survey supervisor in Oregon. People building in mountain areas have the biggest snow load problems, Estoup said, but many building at lower eleva tions mistakenly think snow weight is not a problem. The heavy snow . during the winter of 1968-69 proved otherwise when several buildings in the Willamette Valley collapsed and others at mid-elevations were damaged or destroyed, he said. Snow surveyors collect data regularly each winter and spring on snow depth and weight as a part of the cooperative water supply forecast administered by SCS. Mr. Boner said. This data was plotted on graphs to show the maximum snow and weight that can be expected at var ious elevations in each county of the state. The ground snow weight is adjusted to reflect loss that ne. cuts to snow that accumulates on a roof and is affected by varying and wind exposures. The new Oregon publication is believed to be the first of its kind to show anticipated local snow weight in graph form for an entire state. Copies are be ing distributed by SEAO to ap propriate local city and county officials. Additional copies are available directly from Structur al Engineers Association of Ore gon, P. O. Box 8751, Portland for $1.50 a copy. 1 '.T-T 'V.-: KEEP OREGON GREEN Help fight emphysema with your Christmas Seal contribution. It's i matter of life and breath!

It goes on and on . Just about everything costs a lot more today than it did 10 or 20 years ago or even one year ago. Everything ex cept the kilowatt hour cost of ELECTRIC POWER. Home electric rates are such that the first 240 k.w.h. purchased each month are the most expensive. DO SOME CHECKING. The energy you use for electric heating or cooling is usually purchased at a rate as low or lower per B.T.U. than any other form of energy. Be safe-clean-and comfortable with electricity. The more electric power you use the more you reduce the unit cost of each kilowatt hour used. asin Electric Co op 'Serving Morrow, Wheeler ond Gilliam Counties" Telephone 676-9145 1 azefcfce-1 imes
